Hebrew For Dummies

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
Discover Hebrew with the world's most straightforward guide to one of the world's most beautiful languages.

Shalom! Are you ready to dive into an ancient-yet-modern and rich language full of nuance? Then open up Hebrew For Dummies and get started learning your way around Hebrew by immersing yourself in its sounds and rhythms. You'll start with the basicsβ€”like simple grammar and the Hebrew alphabetβ€”before you move onto commonly used phrases and small-talk.

This book gets you used to the more unfamiliar sounds of the Hebrew languageβ€”like gutturalsβ€”that English speakers aren't used to seeing. It will also help you:

  • Recognize what Hebrew has in common with English (and what it doesn't)
  • Learn to read from right to left, get a handle on the basics of Hebrew grammar, and pick up your first few phrases
  • Discover commonly used expressions that help you get around, shop, eat, and have fun

Complete with online resources that help you pick up Hebrew by listening to real speakers have actual conversations, Hebrew For Dummies is the perfect companion to help you work your way towards Hebrew fluency!
